How Does This Work? - Newbie (16 posts)

I've never made my own website before, and I'm not finding the info I need. I made a website and have Abstrakt3c 2.0 as my theme. I can't contact the developer - their website isn't working. The menu across the top of the page doesn't work, so the only way to access my pages is hidden down in another column. Also, I don't want all this blog stuff - I just want a website. I don't know how to make it work. My site is http://www.tucsonlocalmobilesocial.com, if that helps.

Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, I don't really know what you're talking about - I have zero experience building websites. No, I didn't buy the theme, it was on the list to choose from after I installed WordPress. Someone recommended I use WordPress, but I'm not so sure that's a good idea - it seems to be targeted to bloggers, and what I really want is a ready made website where I can enter my content. I tried uninstalling WordPress and installing Drupal, but that wouldn't let me put a title on my site -- instead it said Drupal in big letters across the top of my site. Any suggestons?

Carol, for the future references when you download a theme with way too many links in footer area and especially when there is so called "Sponsored Links" there is something weird going on. This specific themes doesn't have dynamic menu, nor any other menu for that matter.

In you footer "Sponsored by Structured Settlement." means that someone took this abandoned theme and post their links to gain link popularity. In most cases this area will not be even editable.

It's great idea that you're using WordPress, don't switch, just get another theme instead. Something without links and that's functional.

Instead of that list, search for more themes directly from your WordPress dashboard and that's it.
